Temperature Measurement


Analog temperature measurement for industry

December 2017 Temperature Measurement

Kobold has on offer its type TNS and TNF series for direct analog measurement of temperature in industrial processes. The heat-dependent pressure is transferred mechanically at one end of a nitrogen-filled pressure line to a pointer element. A stainless steel immersion shaft protrudes into the medium at the other end. For applications with strong vibrations, the gauge measuring system may be dampened with glycerine or oil.

The TNS is a stem thermometer according to DIN 16205. The TNF series comprises capillary thermometers according to DIN 16206. Up to 100 m of capillary between probe and housing enables a remote and reliable temperature monitoring.

A variety of typical industrial connections and options allow mounting the instrument exactly as per specified requirement. There are 16 standard measuring ranges range from -40 to 600°C, with special measuring ranges available on request.

The protection degree is IP65. Designs with one or two contacts enable a reliable monitoring of limit values. Slow-action contacts, magnetic spring contacts or inductive contact versions are available; instruments with inductive contacts together with an external switching amplifier are suitable for use in hazardous areas. Areas of application include the chemical, food, mechanical engineering and heavy goods, piping and vessel construction and process engineering industries.
